I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these cupcakes didn't turn out very well. They were dry and the frosting was too sweet.

These cupcakes are the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. The frosting is also very good, it's not too sweet or too tangy.

These cupcakes are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still very good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
